Chapter 6
\nHe Never Noticed Me Until I Loved Someone Else novel Chapter 6<\/p>\n
Just as she finished paying, a somewhat familiar female voice rang out.<\/p>\n
Stella turned her head and saw Jarrod’s younger cousin, Serena Fuller.<\/p>\n
And standing not far behind her was a fashionably dressed Chloe.<\/p>\n
Serena had always looked down on her and had never given her a shred of respect. Stella hadn’t expected her to be so close with Chloe.<\/p>\n
It seemed Chloe truly was the woman Jarrod loved, and the Fuller family had already fully embraced her.<\/p>\n
Stella didn’t want to get tangled up with them. She was about to slip quietly out of the way, but Serena had already spotted her.<\/p>\n
“Oh, isn’t this the little pawn my family bought for an arranged marriage?”<\/p>\n
Serena strutted over on her high heels. “What, using my family’s money to live it up at the mall?”<\/p>\n
Serena’s words were sharp, but not entirely wrong.<\/p>\n
Over two years ago, the Quinn family business desperately needed capital, and Jarrod’s grandfather had been in a rush to find a wife for Jarrod before he went abroad to expand the business.<\/p>\n
The two families struck a deal, and the marriage was locked in.<\/p>\n
Strictly speaking, the Fullers had indeed paid for her.<\/p>\n
Unbothered, Stella looked at Serena and the approaching Chloe, offering a mild greeting. “Serena. Chloe. What a coincidence.”<\/p>\n
Chloe looked slightly surprised but didn’t say anything, merely giving a haughty nod.<\/p>\n
Serena, however, couldn’t stand Stella’s calm demeanor!<\/p>\n
She was an unloved child neglected by her own father, replaced by a stepmother and a favored younger sister, yet she always walked around looking so composed and aloof, pretending she was some highly cultured heiress!<\/p>\n
“What coincidence! My brother specifically asked me to keep Chloe company shopping today! And you? I bet you snooped around, found out my brother might be here, and showed up to make your presence known!”<\/p>\n
Serena’s gaze swept over the shopping bag in Stella’s hand. “Hah, buying a gift for my brother? Do you really think pathetic little tricks like this will secure your spot as Mrs. Fuller?”<\/p>\n
Serena intentionally raised her voice, drawing the attention of several staff members in the store.<\/p>\n
Chloe also threw a glance at Stella’s shopping bag, a faint look of disdain flashing in her eyes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-3294","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/3294","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3294"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
